DSLR filming with grip
So recently I started filming with my T2i (been doing photography for a while, finally decided to take advantage of filming functions). My setup is with the Canon EFS 18-55mm, Opteka Fisheye macro, and x-grip. My question is, considering how low the center of gravity is on the grips and how DSLRs are balanced; how do you stop swing? Also, here is an example of my filming for reference, general criticism is appreciated.

To get rid of swing just practice using it, I mean the only steadier you're going to get is if you get a steadicam. If you have After Effects you can stabilize it in there. Seriously though practice goes a long way, learn how to walk/skate with your current setup and you can make it look really smooth. (bad coffee shop connection so I couldn't watch your vid)

For the first shots you need to get lower and just practice holding the camera steady. You might also want to try and make your own handle out of aluminum / some sort of metal so it's sturdier. (I'm not really sure how well the x-grip supports the t2i with the lens)
